• The first note-
    it comes out so shaky,
    like a leaf in the wind.

    The next two notes-
    a little sturdy;
    a lone flower brushed by a gentle breeze.

    The next four notes-
    I find the beat
    and let it flow through me

    Then the next notes-
    strong and sturdy
    like the ancient oak.

    The next note-
    sharp and clear and strong,
    like the song of the birds in the trees.

    The final note-
    it fades away slowly
    like the darkness before dawn.
